To measure the shape and size of particles

Cilas shape and size analyzer

For the last forty years, CILAS has maintained its position as the technological leader in the field of laser particle size and shape analysis. Our commitment in Research and Development provides a product with the highest level of performance and innovation.

Principle

CCD camera with inversed microscope for particle size and shape analysis, based upon statistical image data analysis for measurement of emulsions, suspensions and dry powders.

Sample preparation :

Liquid mode : sedimentation of powders dispersed in carried liquid,

Dry mode: deposition of the powder on a slide.

Fields of application

Control the particle aggregation state,

Measure simultaneously the particle size and shape on the same sample.

Method of measurement

The particles are measured by the acquisition of the statistical numerical images associated with inverted microscope and computed by "Expert Shape" software.
